DAY 22 20th August Broome

DAY 22

20th August

Broome

We all got up early to go the Gaunthanume Point at low tide to see original dinasours footprints in the ancient rock. They are only visible at low tide which happened to be at 6.30am!! We clamboured down the rocks and found 2 prints. The original light house keeper alsobuilt a pool in the rock for his arthritic wife.

Anastasia's Pool and our shadows!











Quiet day after that around town and packing up and food shopping before we head off down the west coast. Went to Pearl Luggers for a talk on the history of the pearl industry in Broome and the differences between pearls. Very interesting and extremely cruel in the early days using aborigines as slave labour.




At Broome we set up our camp with the awnings as we were therefor 5 days. This was our campsite.
